It is important that our clients understand the following aspects related to administrative procurement.

Certain properties registered to municipalities can be issued via concession to private individuals and corporations. These properties are subject to special restrictions. The Land Maritime Zone Act regulates this type of activity, as well as its restrictions, requirements and exceptions in the application process.

Many clients inquire if a foreigner can be granted a public concession for properties in Land Maritime Zone. This is one of the most frequently asked questions and we will gladly advise you on this matter.

Another important issue is how public works concessions operate and the different modalities used by the government to achieve a public-private infrastructure development. In such a small country with limited resources for investment in public works construction, the public works concession has proven to be an efficient mechanism for achieving the construction of important projects in areas such as airport services, schools, hospital services, loading docks, telecommunications and energy.

NCC Parajeles has participated in various projects of this type and we have trained professionals who are available on all aspects of public works concessions.
